After Soleum goes back home, he wants nothing to do with DER. Ever. So he stays away from it until he realizes that yeah, his job kinda sucked, and he did need DER for his sanity. So he decides to revisit the wiki. Perhaps he could check up on how friends, too.

But there’s nothing. There’s almost nothing new added since he left. No major changes. No big mark on the wiki that indicates the impact Soleum had on the world. Choi’s still dead. Sekwang High still met its worst end. And countless other differences Soleum hadn’t made, not blatant but still implied.

Except for this one. There’s a new popular wiki entry about a certain television program. With several recordings added. Some of them include a television host that misses a friend of theirs. There’s no description of what this host may or may not look like, but Soleum knows.

He checks on other entries the writer of this page wrote. Some exploration records, although heavily downvoted to the degree of oblivion. Significantly mentioning an Employee R. With a Goral mask.

Oh.

The fuck???

Soleum somehow manages to contact the writer, through comments and private messages.

The writer’s name is Go Youngeun.

Employee R was a self insert.

(You could leave the rest to your imagination, but you can also read the below. Tmi alert.)

GYE is a miserable person. She wasn’t always. She was actually a really good student during her school days. Top of her class. But her troubles start when she fails to get to med school. Even with multiple tries. She gave up, but it remained an insecurity of hers for quite some time.

< ACT 1 > CH 01: SAVIOR [PT.1] [396w]

CHAPTER 208 DIRECT SPOILERS!!! this is a major turning point in the canon track. if you have not read up to that point this is your warning ;3

Summary of previous part: N/A

Notes: braun

CW: director cheongdallae, brief Braun mention, ch208, brief gore/body horror, angst

——————————————————————

‘It… hurts.’

“As it is, you’ll soon necrotize,” the emotionless voice of Director Cheongdallae declared.

‘Excruciating… pain.’

I didn’t say anything.

I didn’t know if she was right. I couldn’t think much at all.

My thoughts were growing foggy with agony.

Only primitive thoughts remained.

“If you don’t like that, there is another way.”

Hope.

The sound of paper shuffling.

“A contract.”

The hope snuffed out, leaving behind a bitter resignation.

Desire burnt hot.

‘I want to go home. I want to go home. I want to…’

I chanted that in my head.

"All you have to do is sign.”

Convincing words from an experienced liar in the workplace, but I knew it was my only choice.

Already, I was growing so weak, so formless, that I couldn’t even lift my head.

‘Huu…’

It would be great if there was another choice.

A third option. Anything would be better than this.

“I promise very humane treatment. It will be a satisfactory employment... in the security team, that is."

I wanted to laugh. I knew what this assignment meant.

It was the furthest you can get from being humane.

"Here."

…

"Choose."

Holding it out to me, playing the role of a savior.

His script fit that role, in a twisted way, I had no other solution, no other path forward.

‘Haa…’

I was melting… blood and organs mixing and sloshing in the constricting suit.

I felt like vomiting, but I didn’t even know where my stomach was among all this mess.

I managed to lift a shaking arm, a drowned man clinging to the last piece of floatwood, despite knowing that it was poisoned.

‘This is the end of Kim Soleum.’

On the offered contract, I signed with the mess of blood that had seeped through the suit.

“Good.”

As soon as the last stroke was set in place, my body immediately felt comfortable.

It wasn’t restoration, but it was containment.

Fitting.

‘I am an entity from the Darkness. Darknesses are contained.’

Distinctively, I felt restrictions placed around me.

I knew, from experience and by instinct, that trying to bypass them would only cause me unnecessary pain.

Though, perhaps it was an illusion born out of desperation, but…

Even as my consciousness began to fade, I could sense her, closing in with long, oppressive strides.

Someone etched into painful memory… A Good Friend.

‘My only hope.’

Hmmm... Okay, Since I’ve been in this fandom for just about a year.... And very recently I got into these doujinshis... My range of recommendations will be very limited. None of them are Ranked. However even among them I have favourites which are boldened.....

Warning : Some of the Doujins might not be suitable for your taste... Characters might do certain stuffs ( ** self-servicing ** ) at age 13 without going all the way IN. It might feel Ped*philic for some... Whereas for me it didn’t. So, You be warned.

When the Five-Coloured Rainbow Appears Part 1 (Chapter 1, 2, 3, 4) by Emi/10-Rankai

When the Five-Coloured Rainbow Appears Part 2 (Chapter 5, 6)

Romance - 1%

Plot - 99% [ Suggest me something like this, I would read it all day ]

Plotline: Naruto time travels and meets Sasuke’s family before the Massacre... 

Prepare to cry.

Sasuke was like an Adorable Little Bubble in this one... This dj focuses more on the interaction between Naruto and Itachi... rather than NaruSasu.

---------------------

Sudden evening rain hymn (Part 1) by Emi/10-Rankai

Sudden evening rain hymn (Part 2)

It's a wonderful dj Storywise and Artwise... But my only gripe is... Naruto is just... ummm not Naruto in this dj. I don't think he would take light of Sasuke at anytime.

----------------------

Residence of the Sun (1, 2, 3) by Emi/10-Rankai

Residence of the Sun (4)

Another emotional rollercoaster... Sasuke gets amnesia and Naruto helps him recover from that... 

This dj came at around 2006... And it has “Sasuke loved Naruto all along” thingy which made me wonder... “Kishi, Dude??? 2006??? Did you steal it???” lol.

--------------------------

Uchiha becomes a Cat by Yumemata/Nilo/Signal

Has lill bit smut contents...

But it’s 95% comedy and Naruto was extremely adorable here... Nilo actually trolled SasuNaru here in a funny way....

---------------------------

And We... (Part 1) by Yumemata/Nilo/Signal

And We... (Part 2)

Slice of Life, Modern AU love story... Very good plotline about discovering their feelings.

And We.... 100% Chocolate dear to you. (Independent to the above stories). 

The Last panel in the above one is something that happened in my real life. LOL.

----------------------------

Yotsudake by Yumemata/Nilo/Signal

This is the very first dj I’ve read... So, it’s always my favourite....

---------------------------

Very Special by KSL/Shino Okimura

100% Funny... The Plot twist would make you laugh for a good 5 minutes.... Beware, the first page looks like Hentai. But 100% Shonen-ai all along.

--------------------------

Golden Spiral by KSL/Shino Okimura

If there is any dj that represents pureness and innocence of Naruto and Sasuke... then this must be it. I got real emotional towards the end and then KSL with her trademark twist....made it damn funny in a single page. But a soulful dj nonetheless.

Damn, Most of her best works aren't translated into English and I am planning on doing one of it...

--------------------------

The Sairoku by KSL/Shino Okimura

I can’t even believe people made domestic SNS back in 2005 itself and made it sooooo well... Characters are aged 25 I guess and they are married which is refreshing.... It’s funny af. It has two parts attached in the same link... Don’t miss the other one.

And wait for the Rock Paper Scissor twist... Sasuke is soooo funny in it.

Plus also... you’ll know why Sasuke became a.... ummm... see it for yourself... LOLOL. 

Hint:

-------------------------

Adolescent Mania by KSL/Shino Okimura

That Warmth has a Purpose (Sequel to the above one)

This dj is based on the High School OVA, which SP released in the earlier part of Shippuden....

------------------------

Nine Tails tale Prologue by KSL/Shino Okimura

This DJ came out in 2008... It’s about Naruto in a Kyuubi form who never wanted to hurt anyone... but there is one Sharingan user (Madara) who made use of him to do bad things and Naruto ended up hating Humanity..... Oh Wait!!!! Isn’t this what Kishimoto did in Canon manyyyyyy years later???? LMAO... Kishi is proving again that he is a dj stealer....

--------------------------

KSL is my favourite doujinka so far because she is the only one who got Naruto’s features very close to the Author’s version of him.... ((As much I love Emi and Nilo's version of him... but they always gave me some Minato vibes which is... ummm... not the entirety of his character )) 

Naruto’s brash, unruly, unpredictable, cunning, competitive, offensive, flamboyant, exuberant features were usually never explored in other artists’ works... but KSL did it effortlessly & consistently which you can see from the above posters. Kudos to her!!! And as far as I've noticed, she is the only doujinka that was bothered to explore Naruto's backstory in all of her works... Also, her version of Sasuke is clearly mature, no-nonsense, hilariously cute and close to canon (not giving off that uwu innocent uke vibes)... In Short, Both behaves like Guys in her works.

------------------------

Freak by Monstercake2

I lovvveeed it. It’s an SN dj.... The amount of In-Canon-ness is much better than any other dj I’ve came across... I already talked about it here

-------------------------

Melting Snow by Monstercake2

Another SN dj... I can’t believe both of these are from the same artist... Very adorable and at the same time a painful dj... 

“Bakasuke, What are you doing here?!”

Naruto was unbearably cute in this dj throughout... Sasuke was like, “I am done with this idiot... but I can’t stop liking him” throughout.... 1000% In Canon-ness....

There is this fanart I saw in Tumblr which I loved so much so that I ended up saving it.. In that art, Adult N and S were kissing each other where Sasuke pins up his hands on the wall.. The source is here... I am talking about the 19th picture. Never thought that it was drawn by Monstercake....

-----------------------

Beyond (Part 1) by Aisy

Beyond (Part 2) by Aisy

In this dj, Naruto gets amnesia..... And Sasuke deals with it painfully...
